Red & Gray

This past weekend I was supposed to go to a street festival in Erwin, Tennessee. However, the weather was not real cooperative. With rain, wind, and temperatures in the 50’s, I did what most fashion bloggers would do….I went shopping. I’m loving this new poncho that I bought over the weekend. I purchased it at T J Maxx, and it is a Joseph A.  Here is a similar one. I happen to like mine better, because I like the sleeve detail.I decided to wear red accessories with the gray, this is one of my favorite color pairings. I threw on a really long bead set, (this is doubled), and a bakelite necklace. The red bakelite necklace is one of my favorite necklace’s. It has cubes, disc’s, and balls, not to mention dangles. That is a lot of different shapes in one necklace. I purchased it years ago at the 127 Yard Sale. This is a 690 mile long yard sale that starts in Michigan and goes into Alabama. You can find ANYTHING at this sale. I have seen bomb shelters, an entire stuffed turkey, preserved organs floating in solutions, and my favorite find, a chastity belt.This shows a better picture of the sleeve. Those are metal snaps. You can also see, although not well, my red and clear rhinestone bracelet. Vintage of course.These pants are Harve Benard and they reminded me of riding pants. It’s hard to see the details on them, but they have a seam at the knee going from side to side, then a seam down the middle from the knee to the ankle. Wearing a pair of riding boots just seemed like the logical choice. I dragged out my red Dooney purse. I really like the tassels on both sides. I looked on several sites, but it is sold out, and I did not find one that I considered similar. I am not as wild about the opening on this purse. It has a smaller opening with a zipper closure. With this type opening, you can scrape you hand on the zipper. Whine, whine, whine!My little cutie pie decided to come and join me for his cameo appearance. It won’t be long till he will be modeling his winter outfits.
